Reducing Total Cost of Ownership
Chemistry analyzers are medical laboratory devices used to calculate the concentration of certain substances within samples of serum, plasma, urine and/or other body fluids. Substances analyzed through these instruments include certain metabolites, electrolytes, proteins, and/or drugs.
Today, laboratories are challenged to elevate patient care and reduce operating costs at the same time. The low cost of ownership of our clinical chemistry analyzers helps laboratories achieve their goals and manage resources effectively without compromising quality.
Discover the Beckman Coulter scalable solutions for laboratories of all sizes.
Standardize processes. Our entire family of clinical chemistry analyzers features standardized test menus, assay protocols, instrument processes and reference ranges that reduce operator variation and provide consistent quality results

DxC 500i
Automate Your Chemistry and Immunoassay Testing
Watch how the DxC 500i Clinical Analyzer automates chemistry and immunoassay testing to move through your sample queue faster and smarter than two stand-alone analyzers.
DxC 500 AU
The DxC 500 AU clinical chemistry analyzer empowers low-volume labs to handle testing surges with ease, so you’re always ready to deliver the right results, on time—every time. The DxC 500 AU features advanced automation technology, onboard guided workflows, and standardized reagents for use across healthcare networks. Its menu of more than 120 assays has been independently and objectively verified for high quality Six Sigma performance, supporting confidence in clinical results, reducing QC trouble shooting and lab operational costs.

Fecal calprotectin quantification for detection of inflammatory bowel diseases
Fecal calprotectin quantification for detection of inflammatory bowel diseases - Beckman & BÜHLMANN new partnership
The BÜHLMANN fCAL® turbo assay, (CE IVDR; FDA cleared), designed to quantitatively measure fecal calprotectin, a marker of intestinal mucosal inflammation in human stool, aids in the diagnosis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
It provides clinicians with speed, quality, and flexibility, making it an invaluable addition to clinical laboratories. In a multi-site clinical study, BÜHLMANN fCAL® turbo demonstrated that this test is a valuable diagnostic aid in the diagnosis of IBD and in the discrimination between IBD and IBS, with excellent precision and reproducibility.
